Let's Manage The Tower

(1) Alec in the hospital bed?

About six months have passed since Seyya and Shia were admitted to school.

Kaiseki was taking Floria and Sylvia to another continent.

The scholars headed for the eastern continent, the kingdom of Flores, home of Floria.

Alec, Florian's real father, lives in the king's capital of the kingdom of Flores.

Until just a few years ago, I was a branch manager of the Crown, but after I gave up my position as successor, I lived a relaxed old age.

However, there was a call from Towa that Alec, who was supposed to be living an elegant retirement life, had collapsed, and he quickly brought in two people who could make time.

Alec, the former prince, lives in the noble city of King's City.

However, Alec, who has already given up being a prince, has not received any funds from the Kingdom of Flores.

Alec was able to live in this place because of the money Alec himself earned during his administration and as Prime Minister of Lazeqamamia.

Incidentally, there are not many earnings when working as a branch manager of the Crown compared to both.

Of course, compared to the average income of the general public, it is much higher.

That's why they were heading for Alec's mansion, but Florian stared nostalgically along the way.

"Do you still miss it?

"That's true. I spent my childhood elsewhere, but I've lived here since my social debut."

Childhood royalties tend to spend most of their time away from King's Landing.

This is because it also means spreading royal blood for assassinations and rebellions.

For this reason, Floria was not an example, and she lived in one of the royal districts during her childhood.

However, when I was able to make my own decision to protect myself, I was summoned to King's City to perform my duties as a member of the royal family, such as socializing.

Florian, a native royal family, did not hide in the capital, but occasionally visited the capital.

That's why nostalgia is emerging now.

Florian has barely changed his appearance from the old days, but not many people have seen him in person or realized that he was a former royal family.

It's the same now that you've entered the noble city, so you'll never meet anyone who knows about Floria first.

Because nobles mostly travel by carriage wherever they go, it is rare for them to walk to their destinations on their own feet, like the auxiliaries today.

Even if you were in a carriage, you wouldn't expect Floria to walk around normally.

That's why Kaiseki, who walked lazily to the house where Alec and the others lived, finally arrived in front of the gate of the house.

... I did, but there was a agony.

Because the gatekeepers who thought that they were suspicious of the frivolous auxiliaries were completely stopped.

That should be the case.

No wonder former princess Floria didn't use a carriage and didn't make a reservation in advance.

Soldiers who stood up for security only did their duty faithfully.

Kaiseki, who thought it pointless to repeat the questioning there, contacted Alec with the communication equipment he was supposed to have.

We should be down, but I was hoping someone would come out.

However, contrary to that expectation, Alec himself came out of the communication equipment.

"Ah, that? Weren't you down?

"Yeah? Who's that about?

Having found that the subtle story was not intertwined, Kaiseki thought that it would be pointless to continue talking with the communication equipment, and decided to first have it put into the Mansion.

"Huh? Uh... Well, anyway, I'm in front of the Mansion right now, so could you please let me in?

"What? The Mansion is ours!? Wait a minute!"

On the other side of the communication equipment, she might have been in a bit of a hurry, but Alec could hear a rush to give instructions.

The expectation remained unchanged, and one of the maids jumped out of the mansion in a hurry, and finally the examiners were able to enter Alec's mansion.

Alec, who welcomed the examiners into the room, turned a little dazed.

"What does it mean to come all of a sudden, on foot?

I have complained to the examiners who have quickly done something out of common sense.

However, Florian alone should be blamed on this occasion.

Because I don't know that it is common sense for nobles to use carriages.

Alec understood that, so Floria was the only one looking at him.

The Florian looked bad in Alec's dialog.

"No, it's my usual habit. Besides, isn't it strange to borrow a carriage to get here from the Crown's transfer gate?

"Is there such a reason? At least you can borrow it from the crown."

The Crown has a system to lend to adventurers who do not have carriages to respond to requests from nobles.

Alec, who was a branch manager, knew that well, so he wouldn't be fooled.

However, in response to Alec's dialogues, Florian turned to Kyotong's expression for help.

"... is that so?

"No, I didn't know that."

In short, they didn't have the idea of renting a carriage from the beginning, so they didn't think there was such a system in the Crown.

Alec sighed at the conversation between Kaiseki and Floria.

"Hah. Well, that's good. More than that, what happened all of a sudden? It seemed like something was going on."

That's what Alec said, and the examiner finally remembered his original purpose.

Then he looked at Alec, who seemed to be fine, and spoke with his neck tilted.

"No, we're here because we heard Alec fell?

"What? What is that? Me and my wife are fine, right? Who the hell told you that?

To no surprise, Alec turned his eyes round and looked surprised.

I knew Alec was fine from the moment I heard his voice, but I leaned my neck on this.

"That's right. I heard directly from Towa, but... yeah. Have you even thought about it?"

While talking to myself, the examiner found out who did this.

Rather, it was not only the study aid, but other people also had the same face.

"... Twa. Don't do anything confusing."

Florian murmured, and the exam aid stopped so-so.

"The corner tower has distracted me, so let's go slowly for a while."

When Kaiseki suggested so, Alec nodded with a bitter smile.

"Well, I'm glad you did. Sonya will be happy."

Florian doesn't come to the Mansion so often, though it is readily accessible at the transfer gate.

Sometimes they come because of something, but there has never been much to relax about.

Now that the examiner is with us, we can take it slow without thinking about extra things.

Apparently it was Florian who found out that she was impressed by Towa's temptations, but it seemed difficult to throw away the time spent slowly with her parents, so I decided not to get on board with the proposal for study aid.

I'm not sick or injured, but it's also true that my parents are getting older.

At this time, I was thinking of going slowly to my new parent's house in the words of an appraisal.
